Luke has passed me just slightly in height.  And Aiden is catching Liam while Finn will catch all of us in a few years.

Stuck!

It has been a few weeks since I posted on the blog so I have several pictures to catch up on.

First off, Luke played in an elite hockey tournament with players from all over the United States.  It was an honor for him to play and he enjoyed the competition, but it was also a long week.  The games were a bit of a drive and many were during the day so John and I took turns driving out there with Luke.  John did the bulk of the games and worked around his schedule at the office.  Luke's team was primarily from Boston and they were called the New England team.  They made it out of pool play as one of the top four teams in their division.  Even though they didn't win, it was a fun week for Luke.

On a random weekend a few weeks ago when Luke and Liam had plans with John, Aiden, Finn and I went to the zoo and had a great time.  Finn loved all the animals and while it may not have been Aiden's first choice on activities, he enjoyed it as well.

We had a very nice fourth of July.  We stayed home and really loved the week off to relax.  We had no sports, no practices, no time commitments, no schedules.  It was great!  We spent lots of time at the pool, enjoyed a fourth of July pool party, played golf, and did lots of fireworks.

This week is full of camps for everyone.  Luke and Liam are heading to Covenant Pines camp for the second summer in a row with about 15 of their friends from school.  Should be a fun and exhausting week for them.  They are beyond excited to get back to camp as it was a highlight of their summer last year.

Aiden is doing a three day overnight camp for the second summer in a row with our church.  He loved it last year even though none of his friends went except one.  This year he has several friends willing to give it a try and he is very excited.  We have one 24 hour period when Aiden is gone and after Luke and Liam leave where we will only have Finn.  ONE CHILD!?!  Should be a fun week for all of us!
